N.J. Stat. § 27:1B-21.6
The commissioner or the board of the New Jersey Transit Corporation with the approval of the commissioner is authorized to enter into agreements for a period of years for the advancement of a transportation project to be funded by future year appropriations to the authority, except that, in the case of a transportation project involving appropriations in excess of $100,000,000 in any fiscal year, the agreement shall be subject to approval of the Joint Budget Oversight Committee. The commissioner or the board of the New Jersey Transit Corporation may pledge grant monies or funds anticipated to be appropriated to those transportation projects in those agreements, provided, however that payment of monies pledged is subject to the availability of funds in the year in which the funds are to be appropriated. Any transportation project which is the subject of an agreement authorized by this section shall appear in the annual report of proposed projects prepared pursuant to section 22 of P.L. 1984, c.73 (C.27:1B-22) for each fiscal year in which the agreement is in effect and the report shall indicate the amount to be appropriated, if any, to the project in the upcoming fiscal year.
